The Coverdale Bible, compiled by Myles Coverdale and published in 1535, was the first complete Modern English translation of the Bible (not just the Old Testament or New Testament), and the first complete printed translation into English (cf. Wycliffe’s Bible in manuscript). The later editions (folio and quarto) published in 1539 were the first complete Bibles printed in England. The 1539 folio edition carried the royal licence and was therefore the first officially approved Bible translation in English.-Wikipedia

Ronald Knox NT
Ronald Knox NT was requested to make this translation of Scripture by Cardinal Hinsley and the English Hierarchy. He follows the Vulgate; where the meaning of the Vulgate is ambiguous he consults the Greek text; where the Vulgate reading differs from the Greek, the meaning of the Greek is given a footnote. In his translation he aims at clarity above all, using no expression that is not current in modern English. The illustrations for this edition were selected from museums and art galleries in the United States and England. -Description from Amazon.com
Rotherham’s Emphasised Bible
Rotherham’s Emphasised Bible Joseph Bryant Rotherham’s Emphasized Bible (abbreviated EBR to avoid confusion with the REB) is a translation of the Bible which uses various methods, such as “emphatic idiom” and special diacritical marks, to bring out nuances of the underlying Greek, Hebrew, and Aramaic texts. Rotherham was a Bible scholar and minister of the Churches of Christ, who described his goal as “placing the reader of the present time in as good a position as that occupied by the reader of the first century for understanding the Apostolic Writings”.-description from wikipedia
